View on market: Stay Cautious, be with quality business:

Asian stocks fell Monday and U.S. equity futures rebounded as traders weighed concerns about tightening Federal Reserve monetary policy. Shares fell in Japan, South Korea and Australia after one of the worst stretches for global shares last week since the pandemic began. Gains in S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 contracts held out the hope of some respite. The dollar was steady. The Singapore-traded SGX Nifty, an early indicator of India’s Nifty 50 Index’s performance, fell 0.79% to 17,497.50 as of 8:30 a.m. The Fed on Wednesday is expected to signal a March liftoff in interest rates and balance-sheet reduction later this year to help fight inflation. In the volatile cryptocurrency sector, bruised Bitcoin stabilized around $36,000 in the wake of a plunge over the past three days. Digital coins have shed more than $1 trillion in value since a November high. Meanwhile, traders are monitoring U.S.-Russia tension over Ukraine.
